all
right
folks
just
give
you
now
some
exclusive
access
to
something
you
may
not
get
anywhere
else
as
we
are
at
the
yale
CEO
summit
in
new
york
where
sarah
sitting
down
with
the
richest
person
in
europe
and
one
of
the
richest
people
in
the
world
Bernard Arnault (Chairman and CEO)

businesses
i
think
the
future
is
very
positive
obviously
you
have
always
difficult
times
you
have
crisis
you
have
geopolitical
crisis
you
have
economic
crisis
and
we
went
through
many
of
them
during
the
last
forty
years
but
at
the
end
i
am
proud
that
the
group
has
built
Bernard Arnault (Chairman and CEO)
00:40.600
continuously
has
grown
continuously
because
we
are
showing
something
in
the
world
for
which
the
interest
of
people
is
constantly
growing
you
know
we
are
part
of
history
of
the
country
where
we
have
some
brands
i
think
with
tiffany
in
the
US
we
are
part
of
the
US
history
and
in
Bernard Arnault (Chairman and CEO)
01:05.920
france
we
have
some
brands
that
were
created
around
more
than
five
hundred
years
ago
and
we
are
part
of
france
history
and
very
often
when
i
travel
to
the
world
i
feel
myself
like
a
kind
of
ambassador
not
only
a
businessman
but
i
represent
countries
and
i
am
asked
a
lot
of
Bernard Arnault (Chairman and CEO)
01:34.600
questions
about
how
is
this
done
in
france
how
is
this
watch
is
done
by
louis
vuitton
in
switzerland
for
instance
where
we
have
one
of
the
most
incredible
producer
of
watchers
in
geneva
and
to
give
you
an
example
of
so
difference
and
and
the
mix
in
our
activity
between
high
Bernard Arnault (Chairman and CEO)
02:01.670
technology
and
history
we
just
bought
in
geneva
in
la
fabric
duton
which
is
a
subsidiary
producing
some
of
the
most
beautiful
watches
in
the
world
machine
dating
to
the
eighteenth
century
because
these
machines
were
the
only
one
able
to
create
the
type
of
finishing
on
this
watch
Bernard Arnault (Chairman and CEO)
02:29.160
shoes
on
the
movement
that
we
wanted
to
to
find
and
we
we
are
at
the
same
time
using
the
latest
AI
in
this
factory
for
supply
chain
for
packaging
and
and
for
a
lot
of
things
that
today
does
not
need
really
the
same
type
of
craftsmanship
but
i
am
confident
to
the
future
prospects
Bernard Arnault (Chairman and CEO)
03:11.880
of
our
activities
because
the
more
the
technology
is
going
the
more
efficient
it
appears
and
it
develops
the
more
many
companies
including
LVMH
are
using
it
the
more
people
look
at
the
details
at
the
quality
and
at
a
lot
of
aspect
of
the
product
that
only
the
hand
of
a
person
Bernard Arnault (Chairman and CEO)
03:41.270
man
or
woman
can
do
and
so
i
i
could
give
you
more
details
but
maybe
i
don't
want
to
be
too
long
no
Sara Eisen (Anchor)
03:50.680
that's
OK
i
was
actually
going
to
ask
about
AI
next
and
and
clearly
you
you
talk
about
how
it
can
it
can
work
with
human
craftsmanship
how
do
you
how
do
you
think
about
the
transformation
of
of
the
way
we
shop
and
what
we
want
in
a
in
our
AI
future
Bernard Arnault (Chairman and CEO)
04:07.050
but
the
the
AI
is
growing
i
think
is
really
a
form
of
modern
revolution
and
i
think
we
are
only
at
the
beginning
but
it's
like
in
the
past
when
you
have
revolution
technical
revolution
they
change
a
lot
of
things
but
the
history
is
still
there
and
a
lot
of
our
products
will
not
Bernard Arnault (Chairman and CEO)
04:45.560
be
touched
in
their
fabrication
by
AI
there
is
a
big
difference
in
the
world
between
consumer
products
that
you
sell
in
supermarket
and
that
are
very
necessary
and
the
products
of
high
quality
which
which
is
our
domain
and
they
can
the
demand
for
them
can
go
in
parallel
and
what
Bernard Arnault (Chairman and CEO)
05:11.910
we
observe
today
is
since
the
crisis
last
big
europe
